The Hotel is located a few yards from the Medici Chapel in the famous Basilica of San Lorenzo, known for the New Sacristy where Michelangelo sculpted some of his greatest masterpieces, 50 metres from the cathedral and within easy walking distance from the city’s most important museums.
The Hotel Accademia is an ideal place not only for a holiday devoted to art and beauty, but also for a business trip, being close to the internationally important Fortezza da Basso conference centre.
From the highway (autostrada) follow the signs for the historic centre and Santa Maria Novella railway station. Near the Fortezza da Basso, take Viale Spartaco Lavagnini and at the first traffic light turn right into Via Santa Caterina d’Alessandria.
Go across Piazza Indipendenza as far as the end of Via Nazionale. From here, enter Piazza Stazione, where you turn right into Piazza Adua. Turn right and go along Via Cennini until you come to 7 Via Faenza where you will see the Hotel Accademia.
The hotel can be reached by car. It does not have its own garage but is affiliated with one nearby.
The central train station of Santa Maria Novella is just a 10-minute walk away from Hotel Accademia.
Otherwise you can take a private taxi and reach the hotel in 5 minutes.
From Florence airport you can take a private taxi or the shuttle bus that stops right in front of Santa Maria Novella Central Station. From there go to your left along the railway to Piazza Adua and then turn right along Via Cennini until you come to 7 Via Faenza, where the Accademia Hotel is located.

Comfortable and convenient
We stayed two nights and found this hotel ideal in every way. It is centrally located. We arrived on the train and it was an easy 5 minute walk. It is close to all of the tourist attractions and some fantastic restaurants, cafes and bars. The room was large, the bed was comfortable, the shower had lots of hot water and the décor was stylish. The staff were friendly and professional. The young man in the evening reception recommended an excellent traditional restaurant to us. Breakfast was quite a basic contental but was fresh and we’ll presented. The only downside maybe was that there are a lot of stairs so this hotel wouldn’t be suitable if climbing was difficult for you. We would unreservedly recommend this hotel for a city break in beautiful Florence.
